First, most people don't relieve stress by reading.
Reading, for most people, is not a way of recreation. Perhaps because they were forced to study when they were young, they were disgusted with books, so many people didn't feel cordial about words, and reading was difficult to relieve their pressure. Their only function was hypnosis.
Second, brushing short videos and online shopping are more relaxed and enjoyable.
The rise of short videos actually proves that people don't have time, but choose to spend more time on things that make them feel relaxed and happy. In daily life, many people are under great pressure from work and family, but brushing short videos and watching all kinds of non-cerebral infarction will make them temporarily forget the complicated life in laughter, and the brain will undoubtedly always choose what makes them happy.
Third, it's not that time is running out, but that the environment has changed.
Ten years ago, college students, because of the unrestricted development of mobile networks, still chose to study in their leisure time of socializing, watching movies and performing dramas. Nowadays, in college life, there are networks, videos and games, and reading has gradually become something that exists to cope with exams. So, it's not that time is running out, but more choices.
